The Walking Dead: Rules of Survival

Chapter Seventeen Calm in Panic

When I got home, I moved my things from the car back to my house, and then started to tidy up the third floor where Wang Jun and his wife would live.

There is strength in numbers. Except for Lili, all of us rolled up our sleeves and worked hard to clean up the house, change the sheets, mop the floor, clean the kitchen, etc... In half an hour, the third floor, which had been covered with a layer of dust, finally looked brand new.

.

They also gave the couple some mineral water, biscuits and beef jerky.

Before going upstairs, Rongrong, who knew they were going to have a big dinner in the evening, warmly greeted the two of them to remember to come for dinner.

The things brought back this time filled the kitchen again. The living room is where everyone lives daily, so it is not convenient to put too many things. The rest are all piled up in the bedroom where I live alone.

Looking at the packed house, I felt extremely satisfied. I no longer had to worry about food and drink in a few months.

When I'm in a good mood, I don't feel tired. I just piled things up, took a shower and changed into clean clothes, and then started preparing dinner.

Washing rice, cooking rice, and stewing meat are very busy.

Rongrong, Shen Xue, Meijing, and Yangyang took turns coming to the kitchen and drooling over the pot.

After the meal was ready, Rongrong immediately went to the third floor to call Wang Jun and his wife to eat.

The stairwell leading from the first floor to the second floor was blocked tightly by Suotian and Shen Feng with furniture from the second floor. Anyway, we didn’t need to go out for a while, so we simply opened the door to make it easier for Lili and the others.

Come up and visit.

Suddenly there were two more people, and it felt very lively. Rongrong, the little devil, was just crazy. After knowing that Lili had a baby in her belly, his eyes changed when he looked at Lili, and he followed her like a follower all night.

Behind Lili.

Every now and then, when I get an opportunity, I would stretch out a little finger and gently touch Lili's belly.

While eating, my eyes kept peeking and I almost stuffed the rice from the spoon into my nostrils.

The meal was finally finished after chatting and laughing, and Shen Xue and Yang Yang took the initiative to clear away the dishes.

I boiled a pot of purified water, found a large can of tea that I bought before, and made a cup of tea for everyone. A group of people sat in the living room, drinking tea and chatting. They were very timid.

Because the lights couldn't be turned on at night, we had dinner early. Everyone was in high spirits. Lili and Wang Jun were both good talkers and loved to joke. The group of people talked and laughed, and time passed quickly.

It was getting dark, and after Suo Tian watched TV without any special news, he got up and went back to his room to rest.

As soon as Suotian left, Meijing also returned to the room.

Rongrong was still very interested in Lili's belly and asked from time to time: "Auntie, is it warm for my brother to live here?"

Wang Jun glanced at Lili who was talking to Rongrong in a low voice, turned to me with a worried look on his face and said, "Sister Chen, are we going to stay here like this from now on?"

I was stunned, looked at Wang Jun strangely, and said: "Of course, there is food and accommodation here, and the number of zombies outside has decreased so much. With such unique conditions, of course I have to stay here, what? You

Want to go to the shelter mentioned in the news?”

Wang Jun waved his hands quickly: "No, no, that's not what I meant. The fact that you are still here for so long proves that it is not easy to go to the shelter."

I nodded, Wang Jun is quite smart.

"What do you mean?"

Wang Jun hesitated for a moment, then stood up and motioned for me to go to the balcony. It seemed that he had something he couldn't say to Lili.

"What's wrong?" After closing the glass door on the balcony, I turned around and asked.

"Sister Chen..." Wang Jun frowned, kept rubbing his hands, lowered his head and thought for a while, and then continued: "You also know Lili's situation. She has been pregnant for more than three months, and she will be pregnant for at most six or seven months."

She just..."

"Are you worried about Lili giving birth to a baby?" I asked.

"Yes...I'm just worried about this...Lili doesn't say anything, but I know she must be scared."

"Brother Wang, don't worry yet. After all, there is still half a year. During this time, the current situation may change, social order will be restored, the army is still there, and the TV signals and electricity can still be used. This

It just shows that things are not as bad as we thought.”

To be honest, these words are just enough to comfort Brother Wang. I don't believe it myself. How bad the situation is outside is. The huge group of zombies that surrounded my door have clearly told me.

"I hope..." Brother Wang is still a little worried: "I know almost nothing about the current situation. You guys know better. I really don't know what to do except asking you."

"Okay, worst case scenario, there are several middle-aged aunts living in the building next door. They are all experienced people. If we invite them here, nothing big will happen."

Brother Wang nodded and said gratefully: "Sister Chen, if it weren't for you, I would have died of a panic."

"Brother Wang, you are making a big deal out of yourself by saying that."

After returning to the living room, Wang Jun took Lili back to the third floor to rest.

Shen Xue also went back to the room, while Yangyang and Rongrong played poker on the sofa with a flashlight.

After closing the security door and telling them not to make any noise, I also went back to the room.

Over this period of time, we have become accustomed to sleeping when it gets dark.

Probably the female zombie stimulated my brain too much during the day. It was fine when I was awake, but not after I fell asleep.

I had almost a whole night of dreams, a lot of mess, and I could catch up on a TV series one after another.

When I struggled to wake up from my dream, it was already broad daylight, and there were sounds of walking and talking coming from the living room.

I lay on the bed and looked out the window. The curtains were not closed tightly, and the sunlight poured into the room.

I carefully recalled what happened in the dream just now, but I found that I couldn't remember a single bit. The moment I opened my eyes, it still felt very real, but in the past few seconds, I had forgotten so completely.

After lying down for a while, I finally gave up thinking about those dreams. It was better that I couldn't remember them.

You know by feel that it is definitely not a good dream, and it affects your mood even when you think about it.

Walk into the living room.

Rongrong was wearing the cotton skirt she had just changed into, and she was spinning around in the living room happily.

Shen Xue and Meijing were tickled by her and kept giggling.

Shen Feng and Yang Yang were probably making breakfast in the kitchen.

Suotian sat on the sofa, staring at the news that was constantly replayed on the TV.

His expression was as serious as the news.

I scratched my hair, went to the bathroom to wash up, and when I returned to the living room, Rongrong was leaning on the sofa, screaming, and it seemed that he had been knocked unconscious.

I couldn't help but laugh. I walked over and slapped her little butt, "Little madman, look at how sweaty you are."

"Auntie, I'm not a little lunatic..." Not satisfied with the title I gave her, Rongrong narrowed her eyes and defended.

"You are just a little lunatic." Shen Xue stepped forward, straightened out her crooked clothes, and asked her with a smile: "After dinner, let's go and play with Aunt Lili, okay?"

"Okay~."

"I'll go with you to see if they are used to living here." I sat on the sofa and stretched out comfortably.

I feel refreshed. I used to get up early in the morning, but before going to bed at night, I would watch TV, browse Taobao, read Tieba, or watch movies with Yangyang. I always went to bed very late every time.

The result of lack of sleep is that half of the day is spent in a state of disorientation, with neither feet feeling like they are touching the ground.

Now that there are no Taobao, Tieba, or movies, I can only go to bed early at night, but my mental state is much better than before.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I even feel like I’ve gained a little weight.

After having breakfast and putting away the bowls and chopsticks, they took Rongrong with them and the group arrived at the third floor.

Rongrong looked back from time to time, and I asked her what she was looking at.

As a result, the little guy pouted and became unhappy: "Why isn't Suotian with us?"

Shen Xue pointed at her carelessly and lost her mind, "Little brat! How can you talk? Do you know how to respect your elders? I'll take care of you if you don't deserve it."

Rongrong rubbed his head and argued unconvinced: "It's Suotian! It's Suotian! Just call it Suotian, just call it Suotian!!"

When Shen Xue heard this, she thought it was okay! She rolled up her sleeves and wanted to deal with her.

Just as he was about to reach out and stop him, there was a sudden loud noise downstairs.

Bang!!!

The sound came very suddenly, and no one was mentally prepared. They were all startled.

Rongrong's originally arrogant face immediately changed color and she threw herself into Shen Xue's arms.

I don't know what caused the loud noise, but it's definitely not a good sign to hear such a loud noise suddenly nearby.

I quickly asked them all to retreat into the house. Suotian, who was resting in the house, obviously heard the sound just now. When I locked the security door, he had already ran to the balcony.

Based on the lesson learned last time, no one else was allowed to go to the balcony. If there were a large number of zombies downstairs now, then so many of us rushing to the balcony would be equivalent to directly exposing ourselves.

After Suotian watched secretly on the balcony for a while, he returned to the living room, his lips pursed tightly, as if he was thinking about something.

Shen Xue was impatient. When she saw Suo Tian returning to the living room, she immediately lowered her voice and asked, "What's going on outside? What's that noise about? Are there any zombies down there? Are there many?"

Shen Feng interrupted Shen Xue: "Xiaoxue! You ask so many questions at once and let Suotian answer which one is best?"

Suotian glanced at me and said slowly: "A car hit the tree in the open space in front of us." He paused, and then added before we could speak: "The people inside should be dead."

After Suotian finished speaking, the living room became quiet...

At present, no matter what, none of us can do it and watch a fresh life passing away in front of our eyes without being indifferent.

After a few minutes of mournful silence, Yangyang sighed and asked, "Why did the car suddenly hit a tree?"

Suo Tian shook his head, saying that he didn't know.

"Don't worry about this for now. What I'm thinking about is, will the loud noise just now attract all the nearby things?" Meijing raised the most substantive question.
